1979

I have been living with my sister Tia and her husband for six years since my husband died and stuck together because of this Virus going around. I'm 53 now, my sister 51 and along with her husband have sat and talked for hours at a time, so boring. On Monday my sister brought up the subject of "Elton" of course NOT Elton John. The Elton she brought up was a man my mother married in 1979 where we moved into a beat up cabin near El Prado NM. We've been talking about him since and Tia's husband has been curious to say the least of how this guy treated, abused and took advantage of us. I seem to remember more than Tia and she did in the past tell her husband about Elton. He and my mother were heavily into drugs, they not only shot up drugs but openly smoked crack as they drank enormous amounts of alcohol. They were both passed out much of the time and my sister and I never went to school that year. This cabin was a pigsty in the middle of nowhere, we had no friends and lived on hamburger, hot dogs, cereal and pizza. There were two bedrooms and the rest of the cabin was a combined open kitchen and living room. Adjacent to the kitchen area was a mud room with an open shower, open toilet and a sink along with a long wooden table and two kitchen chairs. There was no privacy and when I think about it now it was a rare day that I didn't see Elton naked or close to it. For that matter my sister and I often witnessed my mother and him having sexual contact.

I do believe my mother was so spaced out she had no control and was oblivious of what was going on. Elton at times made me or Tia strip and would spank us and make us remain naked for hours at a time. He and my mother both showered in front of us and used the toilet when we were in the mud room. Tia and I we like prisoners and after a short time Elton had my sister and I masturbate him in the mud room. He sometimes made us wash his genitals with soap and make us grip his penis to satisfy him. There were times I believe he purposely ejaculated on us and would stand there and make us disrobe and take a shower in front of him. My mother was never in the mud room when this went on but she never seemed to know or care what was going on. He did spank us naked in front of her at times but she not once ever objected to his treatment of us, always blaming us for being brats. There were many times when my mother and Elton were both passed out naked in the living room and days where they hardly ever left their bedroom. Elton was nude for days at a time and they never went out except to get more drugs, alcohol and cigarettes or the little bit of food they got. They were both on SS disability and got food stamps. As time went on that year it just got worse and Elton would have both Tia and I play with him. One of us would have to masturbate him and the other would have to hold his testicles. He also would touch our vagina and squeeze our! nipples. Neither of us had breasts at the time and I wasn't sure why he did any of it to begin with. I knew what sex was because we saw him having intercourse with my mother and I do recall her sucking on his penis a number of times. Later in that year they seemed to be passed out more and for longer times. Towards the end of that year they were sleeping 12 or 13 hours a day, would wake up at times take more drugs and drink more booze. Tia and I would just stare at them as they past out on the couch most of the time Elton was naked and often my mother was.
On January 8th 1980 my mother never woke up. Elton got up for awhile and smoked some crack and after 5 or 6 hours I think he realized my mother was dead. She had overdosed on heroin and Elton made me call 911. That's when they took me and my sister away and took us to DHS where we were placed into a group home. I hadn't seen my father since I was a toddler and had no idea where he was. Even today I never saw my father again and the only other relative I remembered was my aunt Cass who is my mothers sister. After several months they found her living in Chester County PA. Aunt Cass and uncle Danny took both Tia and I to live with them and our two cousins. I turned 13 that year and the rest of my life has been remarkable until my husband died. I have a daughter who I am very close to and am very happy with my sister, her husband and their three adult kids. Unfortunately aunt Cass and uncle Danny are deceased but they were wonderful to me and Tia. We did tell them things about Elton but kept a lot from them out of embarrassment. The last few days we really spilled the beans to Tia's husband and he can't believe how terrible 1979 had to be for us. I never knew or wanted to know what ever happened to Elton. That man was a pig and I hope he rots in hell.
